An exotic, charming red blend of Alicante Bouschet, Touriga Nacional and Aragones (Tempranillo). Thyme and rose potpourri on the nose, with an undertone of blackcurrant and blueberry. Ripe blackberry and stewed strawberry flavours are seasoned with dark spices. A touch of sweetness on the palate is offset by decent freshness. Balanced and long.
